wytnyt Posted August 31, 2014 Author Share Posted August 31, 2014 Its been a very constructive day today,I got my wiring management done today and everything hooked up to be operational. I got my Aquaero 6 installed and running,the Link Commander didn't want to be friends with the A6 so I pulled them both aside and told them they had to share:D: Actually I had connected the LC to the wrong header ,that and a couple more issues and both are co-existing quite well together with Cooling chores split between the two. Several cold boots later and all is well. Now to install my lighting and panel but that's likely to be done tomorrow. http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/db0f7949-ea95-440e-9b71-095afb3174ff_zps6238b024.png http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/A6_zpsb6f5883d.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOODedAssault Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Little suggestion from me. Take out the cpu block led's. Wire add too much clutter to that area. That's just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vrm prob crap out and throttle while stressing before u get there tho. gotta start over w/overclock,somehow between getting the wiring done,it set back to factory bios.:(: i did get 4.7 with bare tweaking at low-mid 60's so still have some headroom i agree n&s bridge are the weak link but couldn't find blocks that i thought were high enough quality...all mounted flaky...to me and no.... you cant have it:D: Little suggestion from me. Take out the cpu block led's. Wire add too much clutter to that area. That's just my opinion. heh,the Aquaero usb was the last wire to connect,man a real fat cable nearly 3 feet long uuuggh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted September 7, 2014 Author Share Posted September 7, 2014 I had a little time to work on things so I managed to get the Link Commander relocated and finished up the wiring. I did a quick ''mock up'' of the panels to insure the wiring and such would fit and while a tight fit,everything lined up good. below is the test fit but excuse all the fingerprints as the paint shows where ever touched http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/IMG_3341_zps2d84c0bb.jpg below is my initial design but had to remake the ssd panel and PSU panel to accommodate the Aquaero 6 http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/IMG_3199_zps4a87c3d7.jpg now to remove and do the long waited last step---the lighting...

thenosbod Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 that looks a nice paint job. petty it not black tho :D::D::D::D: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted September 8, 2014 Author Share Posted September 8, 2014 Id thought about black actually but being the case is semi gloss and I wanted a slick color,I figured it would clash. I just wish I could take decent pics,suxx for an $800 camera.,but I have low led lighting in my home,bad for pic taking I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wytnyt Posted December 13, 2014 Author Share Posted December 13, 2014 I thought Id bump this up for a long over due finished photo shoot but the more that I looked at the build the more I realized I was missing a couple panels to high light things can anyone guess where these 2 panels go? http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/IMG_3516_zps6a1c5ed4.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wytnyt Posted December 25, 2014 Author Share Posted December 25, 2014 I have pics Id like to share of the CPU and Chamber side of my Air 540 This build for the most part is done with the exception of displaying 3x Ssd's in a Raid setup on the chamber side.,the ones I have is a fugly mis-match... If any one has any questions regarding this build,just let me know as I do have hundreds of build pics if interested... Starting off is a pic of the two controllers used in this build a Link Commander [original] with 2 cooling nodes and 2 light nodes http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3692_zps0e4c264a.jpg and an Aquaero 6 both are working well together http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3690_zps4adfce0c.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3611_zpsdb685b3a.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3686_zpse79ab59f.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3685_zps902c9c3d.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3684_zpsf1135251.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3683_zpsc9f122f9.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3682_zps7e842828.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3681_zps3291c3d9.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3679_zpscfe321e9.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3678_zpsde4be38e.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3677_zps1cfc4c33.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3676_zpsbe3ea13c.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3669_zps81055c50.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3670_zps81eacba9.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3661_zpscf9935f3.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3659_zps6329e21a.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3658_zps7e7ed8c5.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3656_zpsc69a957d.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3654_zpscf2b8860.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3653_zps4bee36c1.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3651_zps5903f24b.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3635_zps51f364d7.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3634_zpsaf4df324.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3633_zps08106c2d.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3632_zpsb7e7e3f3.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3631_zps785c2ca7.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3626_zps82d42fc6.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3624_zps43be52e1.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3620_zpsd17e6e0f.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3619_zpsc24a42f7.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3616_zpsadf8045e.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3615_zps80622de0.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3613_zps72796ca4.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3611_zpsdb685b3a.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3610_zps2f9ab030.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3606_zps94ce35ae.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3604_zps748d526c.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3603_zps5c091276.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3602_zpsdf8606c7.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3601_zps2fc9aede.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/build%20pics/IMG_3600_zpsf531dde2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOODedAssault Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 Looking great man. Love how u added the beauty plate to the inside of the rear panel with only the 120mm fan cutout. Only suggestion I have is make that 3rd ssd Samsung as well, for consistency of course, and custom sleeving on that psu. Not only will it really clean up that inevitable nightmare that must be sitting beside that reservoir but it'll look so friggin good on the other side as well. So nice tho definately jealous. I was kind of like �� with the dark blue at first but looks so good now. You did so much of it the dark blue it flows really well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted December 26, 2014 Author Share Posted December 26, 2014 Thx for the compliment Hood and I too had reservations with the dark blue clashing with all of the black which is why I added the extra panels and I think this helped it come together.Of course once I add the dark blue fan covers everything will come together even more so. Initially I was going to display 3 Evo's but the color is off and bland looking and the chamber side really needs theme matching ssd drives to set the chamber side off. I have a few models im eying and fortunately the lack of funds gives me ample time to decide...:D: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted February 18, 2015 Author Share Posted February 18, 2015 Been much too long finishing the last 2 steps of this build,the fan cover and adding the same ssd's on the chamber side Ill be slicing the fan holes tomorrow and finishing it to get it ready to paint and hopefully the weather eases up so my 1tb samsung evo will get delivered tomorrow. Im currently running the first gen link commander and an Aquaero 6 xt and was so impressed with the A6's fan control,im having a Aquaero 5 being delivered to complete fan control. Also having a mini commander being delivered to manage the light modules ,,eventually that is as that order has been processing for 3 days now :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 The weather has kept me bogged down as usual but I did get the mounting points for my fan covers done which has made me anxious to smooth things out and paint. The fan covers lock at the lower front,connect together at the top front and snap in place at the rear which will not require any screws. :D: http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/IMG_3729_zpsorrmdhoq.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/IMG_3730_zpsaepqvnst.jpg Here is a plexi plate made to attach my Aquaero 5 and sitting comfortably next to a new arrival- the Commander Mini Hopefully these 2 will play well with an existing Aquaero 6XT,making a total of 3 controllers total being used in this build Overkil-yes but fun never less http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/IMG_3732_zpsnecyy3h9.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted March 11, 2015 Author Share Posted March 11, 2015 Just got my fan covers finished and painted today and whats that with em? hmm,looks like 3 Neutron XT SSD'S,,yeah baby http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/IMG_3734_zpsfetfp9nq.jpg This makes this build totally Ssd's, along with 2 250 Evo's and a 1tb Evo drive...

wytnyt Posted March 11, 2015 Author Share Posted March 11, 2015 Sorry Corsair but the red Ssd clashes with my build color, now just need to decide on using the trim rings or not...:hmmm: opinions? http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/IMG_3746_zpskle2bqzr.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted March 16, 2015 Author Share Posted March 16, 2015 Here were taking out a Original Link system that has served me well for nearly 3 years and replacing with the Commander Mini http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/IMG_3765_zpstnhfv3zs.jpg Here were connecting/testing the A5 and A6 followed by the CM . Ill be testing things for a few days before buttoning things up but as of today all 3 controllers are performing very well together... http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/IMG_3763_zps38v3aey2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted March 23, 2015 Author Share Posted March 23, 2015 I have my new XT drives placed over my evo's and trying to decide if the XT looks better with or without the trim ring Can someone make up my mind?;): http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/IMG_3768_zpsxdwngitn.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ananais Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I have my new XT drives placed over my evo's and trying to decide if the XT looks better with or without the trim ring Can someone make up my mind?;): http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e152/wytnyt123/IMG_3768_zpsxdwngitn.jpg First off, absolutly love this build, really great work! As for the SSD's, as much as the covers look really good before the drives are fitted, I would lean towards not using them. The dark backdrop against the white border of the SSDs looks really nice and makes the SSD stand out, but if you add the cover, it just seems off to me somehow... I think its the dark > light > dark, rather than a border it makes the white part look kinda out of place and not part of the design if you get what i mean? Either way, love the build :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
